Of course, one could talk for hours about the categorial nature of human thought, but I would like to point out just one thing for now: within the actual table of categories, “subjectivity” and “objectivity” do not appear at all. And the fact that within the actual category table, the actual, the original category table, “subject” and “object” do not occur at all, this in itself constitutes a kind of proof of the essence of categorical thinking: if one takes the categories in the way not as they arise from some sort of proof, but simply, I might say, as they are derived from logic, then, by dint of being posited, they must be applicable to that which is above 'subjective' and 'objective'. That to which the categories are applicable must be supersubjective and superobjective. But the fact that the categories are applied by man himself is a clear proof that in categorical thinking there is not a subjective, but a subjective-objective.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"2.

Man könnte natürlich über das Kategorienhafte des menschlichen Denkens viele Stunden reden, allein ich möchte da zunächst nur auf das eine hinweisen: Innerhalb der eigentlichen Kategorientafel kommen die «Subjektivität» und die «Objektivität» gar nicht vor. Und daß innerhalb der eigentlichen Kategorientafel, der eigentlichen, der Urkategorientafel, «Subjekt» und «Objekt» gar nicht vorkommen, das bildet an sich eine Art von Beweis über das Wesen des kategorialen Denkens: Wenn man die Kategorien in der Weise nimmt, wie sie nun nicht aus irgendeinem Beweis hervorgehen, sondern einfach, ich möchte sagen, aus der Logik herausgelöst werden, so müssen sie, indem man sie aufstellt, anwendbar sein auf dasjenige, was über «subjektiv» und «objektiv» erhaben ist. Es muß das, worauf die Kategorien zunächst anwendbar sind, ein Übersubjektives und -objektives sein. Damit aber nun, daß die Kategorien durch den Menschen selbst angewendet werden, ist ein klarer Beweis gegeben, daß im kategorialen Denken nicht ein Subjektives gegeben ist, sondern ein Subjektiv-Objektives.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":172,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/76/1921-04-04/p058"}],"english":["GA 76/1921-04-04/p058"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":172,"en_words":188,"ratio":1.09,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.02,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":8785,"original_word_count":8635,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Stimulating Effect of Anthroposophy on the Individual Sciences","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA076/English/SOL2024/19210404p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
